NICE^^^^ I have the same rims and was thinking how would 25mm spacer would look like. doesnt look that bad at all. Your center caps are nicer than mines too. Mine came with the chrome ones.... Running capless.

They should fit with no problems.Pretty sure those are 19x8.5 ET33 .I'd double check and ask the seller to look on the inside for the offset.

I need an staggered 18" wheel setup that clears ls400 front and TT rear brakes and fits 245 fronts and 275 rears with a roll and no pull for $1000 or less. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance for any help.

Thinking about going with these as well but I havent lowered my car, nor do i have any real plans on doing so. I may down the line but very minimally. right now i have 10 mm spacers front and rear with m35x wheels and they dont look too bad but Im interested in a change...

Same wheels as above in Gold on this car, any thoughts. If stock ride height is maintained...

If lowered say 1.5 or so...

should I go bigger spacer, stay at 10mm. The above poke looks good but not entirely necessary IMO.

Car is boosted obviously and not in the mood to damage piping or anything like that.

No they won't, you'll need something with a 5x114.3 lug pattern.

Is there a reason why you are looking at these? Wrong bolt pattern with an unknown offset. I'd pass. If you need winter wheels, get some Blizzaks for the stock wheels.

Default little bit confused

I've been reading through a lot of the pages and it seems like the more I read the more confused I'm getting. Anyways, I want to get some wheels and the ones I want will be 19x8.5 fronts with a +35 offset and 19x9.5 rears with a +38 offset. I would like them to look flush, but if seems like there are mixed opinions about this. My car is stock height as of now, but I will lower it after I get the wheels. However, I just want the fender to be right above the tire. Does anyone know if the specs of those wheels will look flush? If not, I would like some opinions on wheel sizes and tire sizes as well. I don't mind rolling the fenders if I have to, but I'm not really trying to do anything VIP, so please don't tell me to do +15 offsets or something of that nature. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

This thread has been a ton of help, but there is one thing I am unclear of.........I have come across the size of rims and tires I want, so I just know what offset and width I need. However, if I didn't have pictures of other peoples wheels to go off of, I guess my question is how do you figure out what possible offset you need with a certain width to get your rim to sit where you would like it?

I know we have a standard offset of +50, but how do you figure this out ? what is the equation i guess

Sorry if that post was a little hard to understand. I guess I just want to know what offsets will give me a "flush" look without doing any major work to the fenders. Like I stated, I don't mind rolling the fenders, but I don't want to run any camber or pull my fenders. Hope that was a little bit easier to understand. TIA for any replies.

Don't buy those wheels then. You will have the sunk look. +20 will get it pretty flush and above the fender.

You seem to know the answer to your own question.
